Education

Youth Courses – 4heads partners with youth organizations to offer arts education courses, giving students the chance to study with working artists. For many young people this is a unique opportunity to be exposed to the arts. Governors Island provides a safe park environment in which to learn with lots of open spaces to enjoy. If your organization would like to partner in an arts curriculum with 4heads please contact us here.

We also offer a changing array of adult lectures and tours. Please contact us for more information and schedules here.

Open Studio

Stop by and visit 4heads Open Studios this Summer.

Each season 4heads provides free studio residencies for selected artists. The importance of affordable creative space is essential to the cultural future of New York City. As the cost of work space is beyond the reach of most artists in New York, 4heads felt the need to make some studio spaces available.

Resident’s studios are open to the public, allowing visitors to Governors Island the opportunity to meet artists at work and to view our historic spaces. Studios are open weekends from July through September, 11am to 6pm.
